Odette Barsa was a lingerie designer who was very successful. She was born in Syria in 1901 and came to America where she married Simon Barsa in 1922. Her husband had a successful business but it got into trouble after the 1929 stock market crash so she started making lingerie. She imported her fabric and embroideries and made high end lingerie up until her death in 1975.
This is a wonderful cropped feather coat that is quite fabulous. The color of the feathers is a pale and pretty soft pink. It has no closures and the sleeves are pretty little capped sleeves. I love the short cropped cut to it and the way the front curves up to the neckline. The choice of the soft down feathers gives it a pillow soft feel and makes it very romantic and feminine. It has that bit of a current Saint Laurent flare to it and the length means it can top just above anything. Excellent condition
